Coordinator’s Message:

Welcome! I am Iran Miranda, the IB MYP Coordinator for Lamar Louise Curry Middle School. I graduated from FIU in 2001 with a Bachelors in Education and I’ve been a teacher at LLCM since 2006. I’ve seen the evolution of our wonderful IB program and I look forward to working with all of you during your years within the Middle Years Programme. It is my intention to continue to nourish and strengthen this program because the fundamentals of IB provide a framework for students to grow within their core subject areas while developing 21st century learning skills that will serve them through middle school, high school, and beyond. I have some wonderful things planned for our IB Curry Students! And, I am confident that we can continue to be “Simply the Best!”
